Sweat analysis can provide important information about metabolites that are valuable indicators of biological processes. Improved performance of the 3D-printed electrode was achieved after electrochemical treatment of its surface in an alkaline medium. This treatment promotes the PLA removal (insulating layer) and exposes carbon black (CB) conductive sites. The pH and the square-wave anodic stripping voltammetry technique were carefully adjusted to optimize the method. The peaks for Zn2+ and UA were well-defined at around - 1.1 V and + 0.45 V (vs. CB/PLA pseudo-reference), respectively, using the treated surface under optimized conditions. The calibration curve showed a linear range of 1 to 70 mu g L-1 and 1 to 70 mu mol L-1 for Zn2+ and UA, respectively. Relative standard deviation values were estimated as 4.8% (n = 10, 30 mu g L-1) and 6.1% (n = 10, 30 mu mol L-1) for Zn2+ and UA, respectively. The detection limits for Zn2+ and UA were 0.10 mu g L-1 and 0.28 mu mol L-1, respectively. Both species were determined simultaneously in real sweat samples, and the achieved recovery percentages were between 95 and 106% for Zn2+ and 82 and 108% for UA FUNDAÇÃO DE AMPARO À PESQUISA DO ESTADO DE SÃO PAULO - FAPESP COORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DE PESSOAL DE NÍVEL SUPERIOR - CAPES CONSELHO NACIONAL DE DESENVOLVIMENTO CIENTÍFICO E TECNOLÓGICO - CNPQ Fechado |
